'You can never catch me, you know that.' Nico teased as Hazel raced after him, laughing and shouting murder at the same time. Frank stood by, amused. Nico had teased Hazel about her and Frank, which had sent Hazel into a playful fit.
Percy was reading something on Annabeth's laptop, which Tartarus had been kind enough to return. It was intact, but not any more when Hazel tripped over it. Her foot smashed the screen, and Percy gasped in horror.
'Annabeth's killing me for that!' he shrieked.
'That's nothing,' Leo came over to inspect the damage. Within a few minutes, the screen was intact again.
'Say, is Percy turning into Annabeth?' Nico asked teasingly. He had grown more playful after the Tartarus ordeal, to hide away the pain that was still there. It hurt Hazel a lot that Nico won't let her help, but she let her brother do as he pleased.
'No!' Percy defended himself. 'Dad was chuckling a lot when he was reading something on a computer when I visited him last week, and I was curious!'
'So you were trying to hack into his computer?' Leo asked.
'In a way, yes.'
'You could have just asked me, you know.' Poseidon appeared on the beach, a warm smile on his face. Percy turned red instantly.
'Is it the monthly gods-hang-with-children event?' A familiar voice asked.
'Hermes! Some stamps please.' Leo said. He high-fived with Hermes. The prankster god had took a liking to Leo the first time he met him.
As about the event Hermes mentioned, that was done at the seven's request after the fiasco with Gaia.
The other gods started turning up.
'As a matter of fact, it is the monthly gods-hang-with-children event.' Zeus said.
The gods all held laptops and some of them were still laughing their heads off. Even the grumpy Zeus had a smile spreading on his face.
'What exactly is so funny?' Percy demanded.
'Well…' Apollo passed his laptop to Percy.
Percy stared at it for a moment, then his mouth fell open.
'How. In. Tartarus. Did. The. Author. Get. Hold. Of. That?'
'Let me see.' Nico peered at the laptop, concentrating hard. Then he straightened up suddenly.
'Damn you, Alexis!' he shouted. A minute later, Alexis appeared, grinning and clutching a fistful of forgetful dust.
'What? Do you need some forgetful dust?'
Nico pointed at the gods and their laptops. Alexis caught the meaning immediately.
'Gods. Oh my gods.'
'Forgetful dust on them. Now!' Jason ordered, having been brought to the scene by Piper.
'Oh, I don't think so.' Hades vanished Alexis's forgetful dust immediately. 'You are reading this with us. And maybe the other people in the story can join us.'
Apollo grinned and snapped his fingers.
A very annoyed fellowship appeared.
After some explaining and restraining, everyone sat down and began the first chapter. Zeus grabbed the chance to read first.
Authors note: just so you know, bold letters are going to be me, Alexis.
'Remind me to kill Alexis.' Legolas said. Alexis crept closer to her father-and safety.
Here are all the victims.
'What?!' Everyone shouted.
I mean, participants.
'What a nice save.' Hermes said.

Private message me ideas if you would like, i might use them.
Let us begin!
Every one gulped at the memory.
It was a normal day at Camp Half-Blood
'Normal?'
when several strange people appeared at the border. Yes, these people were characters from Lord of the Rings. After welcoming them to the Camp, and introducing them to several of the campers, Percy decided to break the ice
'I think it broke more than ice, Perce.' Nico said, shaking his head.
with a little game of Truth or Dare. Actually, it was Travis' idea, but whatever.
"I'll start." Percy began. "Who wants to go first?"
No one raised his or her hand.
'Of course, given what happened.'
"Okay then, I will start with the most beautiful person here." Percy said.
Aphrodite leaned forward.
'You weren't there, dear.' Hephaestus said.
Legolas raised his head.
'What?' Aphrodite shrieked. 'You dare compete-'
"Annabeth, Truth or Dare?" Percy asked
Aphrodite grinned at Percy.
Embarrassed, the Elf looked away.
"Um..." Annabeth stammered, "Truth."
"Drat, I have nothing." the son of Poseidon complained, "What are you most afraid of?"
'Don't bring that up,' Athena warned.
"You know that already!"
"Well, the visitors don't." Percy explained slyly.
Annabeth sighed. "Spiders. I am afraid of spiders."
Athena glared.
"That is nothing to be ashamed of," Sam said, "Mr. Frodo and I were almost eaten by a giant spider once."
'I agree with you.' Athena said.
'Spider!' Alexis yelled.
Athena almost slid off her chair only to find it was a trick.
Annabeth shuddered. "Okay, Pippin, Truth or Dare?"
"Dare, I guess," the Hobbit answered.
"I dare you to speak in Pig Latin for the rest of the day!"
"Rrrgay," Pippin said, "Andalfgay, uthtray oray areday?"
"Uh, uthtray. I mean truth." Gandalf replied, trying not to laugh.
'How do you even understand that?' Hades asked Gandalf.
"Oday ouyay ikelay itewhay oray aygray etterbay?" Pippin decided
"Merry, what did he say?" Sam asked.
"'Do you like white or gray better?'" Merry translated
"Oh, I suppose either. I do not prefer one over the other." Gandalf answered, "Travis Stoll, Truth or Da-"
'No competition there.' Hermes grinned at his son.
"DARE!"
"Well, okay, I dare you to, um…"
Connor whispered something in Gandalf's ear.
"Your brother says to dare you to flirt- is that even a word-
'It is.' Everyone said except the fellowship.
with Katie Gardener."
Demeter groaned.
Travis threw a flashlight at his brother- Zeus knows where it came from, is that thunder outside? Even Zeus does not know-
'What?' Zeus said indignantly. 'I know everything!'
'Okay then,' Nico said. 'Whatisfivemultipliedbytendiv idedbytwoaddedbythreeandsubt ractedbythreehundredandfifty ?'
'I don't know.' Zeus admitted defeat.
and sat down next to Katie.
"Hey beautiful," He began, "I'm really sorry about those Chocolate bunnies on the roof thing."
Katie mercilessly jabbed Travis with her elbow. Holding his hurt stomach, Travis looked at his brother.
"Maybe next time I won't apologize before flirting."
Aphrodite gave Travis a good long look. 'You should.'
"Good idea!" Connor laughed, "Your turn."
"Frodo, Truth or Dare?"
"I chose dare." Frodo answered.
"Prank call a god!"
Aphrodite grinned. Her son had told her about that one.
"Which one?"
"Cupid!" Travis said cheerily.
Travis handed Frodo a pre-dialed phone.
Ring, ring, ring. Hello, this is Eros or Cupid, god of love. How can I help you?
"God of love?" Frodo asked, "I thought Aphrodite ruled love."
'Yep.' Aphrodite brushed her hair.
Yes, but I am her son!
"Doesn't that make you, like, a redundant god?"
'Actually,' Zeus said thoughtfully. 'It does.'
Oh, you'll pay for that!
The line went dead. Moments later, a small, winged god flew into the room, randomly shooting Alexis.
"Ah!" she yelped, "What do you think you are doing?"
"Now," Cupid said, "Who called me?"
Panicking, Frodo pointed to Legolas.
'So it was you.' The elf grumbled.
The Elf looked up, confused.
"Wait, what?" he asked as Cupid strung his bow.
"Oh, a bow and arrow contest? I'm in!"
'Definitely in.' Everyone snickered while Legolas hid his face in his hands while Alexis was wishing for her forgetful dust.
The arrow was released. Knowing what was going to happen, Alexis threw her knife at the arrow. They collided in mid-air. Angered, Cupid prepared another arrow and this time hit his target.
The gods, barely able to hold it in any longer, burst out laughing.
